Gato was Freaking out... he Was Dead... That Fucker Zabuza had just cut his head off before kicking his body into the Waters below. Gato knew that last part because he was now a ghost...rising above the bridge and glaring hatefully at everyone around him. Everything he had worked for, everything that belonged to him was crumbling away... It was infuriating.

However all such thoughts vanished when a deep, cold sensation raged across the bridge, drawing his attention... and making him tired in a way he had never been while he was alive. Looking around... he saw the Source. A Bright, Yellow Glow surrounding the Blonde Whiskered Boy's Stomach...

The boy himself seemed tired, as if he was about to pass out and throw up at the same time. He Stumbled a few times before a Massive, Semi see through Purple Hand shot out of his stomach and rocketed toward Gato, grabbing onto him with a Cold Sear.

And Despite this... Gato was not afraid... not even a little. He just felt tired, exhausted...

Blackness filled Gato's eyes as he was was absorbed into the Hand which sot back into the boy's stomach... knocking the boy out as Gato was merged with him.

The Death Reaper Seal was Special for Two Reason... The First was that it possessed some slight sentience, partially due to being made by the Death God's Essence. The Other Reason it was special was the fact that it literally had the power to disolve and consume Souls... an Ability also born from the Death God's Essnce.

Because the Seal was Sentiment, it knew that it's host was unbalanced... and that if this imbalance was not fixed.. the host would forever be an idiot. Simply put, the boy possessed far too Much Physical Energy, there was not enough Spiritual Energy or Darkness for a proper Balance... and so the Seal took action.

During the Episode on the Bridge, where so much death occurred... it was able to draw power and Search out a Soul that it could use to restore the balance of it's host...

The Other Soul could not be a Ninja... no it had to be someone with no physical Training... someone extremely dark, intelligent, self Serving, Capable of thinking hundreds of steps ahead... Capable of true anger instead of righteous fury or agitation... someone with a great deal of experience and knowledge... Greedy...and Weak Willed. Everything the Host was not.

And Gato fit the Bill Perfectly...

Drawing on the Death around the Host, the Seal swift grabbed hold of Gato's Soul, draining his energy before drawing him into the Seal...

The Host passed out as a Massive amount of Spiritual Energy began to restore the boy's fractured mind and restore balance... but it was not enough... he would need more.. far more... if he was to truely become Balanced...

And so, the Seal began to change his host, using the power of the Best it held back... to give his host.. the power to Consume... Consume the Souls to the Dead.
